The amazingly neglected music of the late Laura Branigan is one of the mysteries of pop culture. Tragically never given the world stage she deserved in her lifetime. This was her second original album and, its an excellent piece of work. Maybe not as cohesive as later albums but, nevertheless, a classic clue of what was to come from this artist. The two big hits here were "Solitiare" and Laura's rendition of the Michael Bolton song "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You". The delivery of both tracks is pure bliss.Its maybe the other songs though that most people would never associate with the H-NRG and soft rock we are more used to from Laura. The country flavoured Squeezebox and Lucky being two cases in point. One thing Laura does very well are the big ballads and the stand out one here is the glorious "Find Me". Laura's voice literally cries on that track.The two biggest clues to the way her career was progressing with her next album are possibly "Dont Show Your Love" and "I'm Not The Only One", neither of which would have been out of place in any UK Hi-NRG venue of the early 80's."Deep In The Dark" is a track I like but I defy anyone to actually define.The moody "Mama", and the power rock of "Close Enough" make this a great second album from Laura and well worth a listen just to hear a true artist with a versatility few can compare with.

A beautiful album demonstrating Laura's massive talent.Laura shows lots of emotion in "Find Me", "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You" and "Don't Show Your Love".The country style "Lucky" & "Squeeze Box" are both excellent.My favourite being "Deep In The Dark" - which is the ladies' reply to Falco's "Der Kommissar".It seems that lack of promotion prevented "Solitaire" being a big hit.
